i idolized you your a big star here and then your like that you didn't think about the feelings of your fans here your not worth it for my respect your the most insensitive person i ever known! i thought you are kind but you discriminate us! you didn't even know how kind we are! i really hope that you didn't said it!!!!!!!!!!

did lee jun ki realy said that!!!!!
i admire him so much..
i cant believe that he said that
he's a celebrity or anything so he cannot choose his fans or admirers or anything
i'm a filipina sO it really hurts me
specially at the time that i've read that

Don't worry, Lee Junki did not say does insulting words to us. Actually I've been curious about it too, and i tried to find out whats the truth about it..
Someone just uses his name to insult the Philippines..

Heres a message from the Yangpa: (they are the one responsible for the article, and heres their explanation)

"Well, here's the story behind that article. I wrote another article making fun of Lee Jun Ki, and thereafter I started getting all of these comments from people who were apparently pubescent girl fans who weren't getting the satire. The article quickly became the most viewed, searched for, and commented article on the site. And for months, I ignored it, but after a while I decided I ought to have fun with it. So I wrote the second article. Which alone is just cruel and stupid and not even really funny, but in the context of the situation is...well...not really clever, but I guess you can understand it more. I mean, it was trying to put a twist on the situation rather than just making blunt attack on the philippines, which I've never been to, have no opinion of, and can only occasionally spell correctly.

I figured it would only cause heartache and tears for 13-year-old Lee Jun Ki fans, the thought of which makes me laugh because I'm heartless. But instead it's been picked up by another bunch of people, presumably young filipino guys, who also don't understand the satire and are spitting mad about it. Really, I don't feel responsible for the feelings of people who can't understand obvious jokes. I mean, dumb people are always going to go through life suffering because of what they don't understand. And I doubt this little brouhaha will damage Lee Jun Ki's career, and also I doubt that I can be sued for what is clearly a joke.

Now, regarding Korean netizens, they've been watching the site via the antienglishspecturm naver cafe for a long time now and they seemed to understand the satire for the most part. And if they let this article go without comment, then I don't know what could make them angrier. I don't think a big netizen attack is impossible. But the site is text-based and requires a good knowledge of English to even understand on a basic level. It's just not going to produce a reaction like pictures of wet t-shirt contests. Even Occidentalism.org, which is truly vicious, hasn't entered the average angry netizen's conciousness.

But yeah, I don't really feel proud of the article in question. I'm disappointed that it's gotten more attention than what I think is better material. And I really don't like all the racist comments. I'm not sure what I should do with it. Pull it down? Clean up the comments? Let it die out? I hesitate to pull it because I've been aiming to make stuff that was funny and merciless and would not pander to anybody's prejudices and would not hold anybody's hand and pat them on the head and say, "oh it's just a joke." People have to think for themselves. For me to break the facade of seriousness and let everybody in on the joke wouldn't be right. I dunno. anyways, those are my thoughts.

if you want to join the forum heres the address, you'll find discussion about this article... Don't hate Junki aymore he did not say anything about the Philippines!

Yes, a new star is born, right here in Asia. Lee Jun Ki has stunned the Asian audiences with his remarkable acting in King & the Clown. He will soon reach the international stardom, and I doubt that anything could stop it. Thank God for this wonderful boy.

i had watched a lot of korean soap and movies and jun ki is just one of the korean guys who stole my heart, next to jang dong gun! i just couldn't explain this insanity.... i find him amazingly well and he just deserves his title now as the hottest heartthrob!
kudos!
